Netflix picks Blu-ray, good luck renting an HD DVD soon
- Thread starter TONY206
- Start date
Step away from the pipe......or if you were agreeing with me (and I can't tell), feel free to pick up a book on Composition, and then use it.
DVD-Rs are still available.....for the same price as DVD+Rs. All day, every day. Only difference comes with DVD+R DL, there aren't much DVD-R DLs.....then again, most people don't care about that shit anywayz.

This sounds about right. Blu-Ray will be a good buy when u can get one for under a hinid bucks like a DVD player. Other then that I'm still fucking with a regular DVD player. It aint like UGA vol. 3 or Hood 2 Hood Vol.2 are gonna be on Blu-Ray when they come out. If u got a good ass television & a good DVD player ur str8.

We're not exactly sure what's going on in Toshiba land, but shortly after not-exactly-believable whispers made the rounds of the firm suddenly deciding to try its hand at making a Blu-ray player, we're now seeing reports stating that it will pull the plug on its beloved format "in the coming weeks." Citing unnamed industry "sources," The Hollywood Reporter is suggesting that the end may be nigh for the HD DVD format. Jodi Sally, VP of marketing for Toshiba America Consumer Products, was quoted as saying that "given the market developments in the past month, Toshiba will continue to study the market impact and the value proposition for consumers, particularly in light of its recent price reductions on all HD DVD players." Of course, we aren't exactly equating said statement to waving the white flag or anything, but whatever the case, it seems the death watch is in full effect.

What? This doesnt make any sense nor does it pertain to anything being said in this thread.
DVD-R and DVD+R are different technologies. They are not interchangeable.
Blu-Ray and HD-DVD are different technologies. They are not interchangeable.
Women and Men are different te--.......I hope you get the point by now.
Quotes like
"bullshit..obviously you haven't seen both...blu ray image quality blows hd dvd out tha water.."
Make me wonder about some of you people. Raw data is raw data. If you don't think HD-DVD and Blu-Ray are the same quality, you're on something...or you're fooling yourself. The only consideration would be compression.
Rip a 30gb Blu-Ray and put it on a HD-DVD.....voila. Same exact shit, same exact quality, different disk.
